I have a weird issue on one of my Fedora 11 machines. All my cron jobs keep running twice. (for example the stuff in cron.hourly will run twice every hour.) Just upgraded this machine from Fedora 10 yesterday. Thereâs only one crond process running so Iâm not sure why itâs doing it. Hereâs the log:
